Indiana Connectivity Program

The Indiana Connectivity Program is an extension of the NLC Grant Program. The program allows unserved or underserved locations to apply for consideration in the Next Level Connections portal to initiate their interest in receiving broadband internet service. Internet service providers will have the opportunity to review the locations submitted by end-users and place bids to the state on the cost of providing service to these locations. The Allen County Commissioners strongly encourage residents and businesses to leverage this program that lack broadband internet access.
